Bond’s first play will be …
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
They say you never get a second chance to make a first impression, and John Bond is about to make his. That had me thinking back to two dramatic first plays.
2005, Tech vs. UConn: Reggie Ball misses the game because of what later proves to be meningitis, and Taylor Bennett debuts. The first play is a pass to Calvin Johnson just beyond the first-down marker, and Johnson takes it from there, completing a 42-yard touchdown play.
2006, Tech at Virginia Tech: Memories of the previous year’s 51-7 rout vanish immediately when Ball throws 59 yards to a wide-open James Johnson on the game’s first play. Georgia Tech goes on to lead 38-13 and coast to a 38-27 victory.
So, what does Bond call on his first play? A handoff to Tashard Choice? A pass to Greg Smith? A trick play? What would you do, and what will he do?
